WHAT?! no! come on guys! please just give them a chance! seriously, someone come to my house and try them! haha. no seriously. they are awesome! just because converse is a hacker shoe doesnt mean these are bad, its the newest version! i didnt even get them for footbag in the first place. THEY ARE FINE. just everyone calm down.

i have seen a few kinds in stores now. and tey honestly dont even look that good, the shoes i have now are even better for clippers. i pled with some in the store and they played like crap..you shouldnt have to mod them to make them good, mine are great right out of the box.

Dude. If hundreds of people buy a shoe, I'm pretty sure they know what's up more than you. Buy lavers. It's worked for every other footbag player.

i have tried them like i said, its no good. its like a trend, its not always the coolest looking or best thing but people do it anyway because one guy said they were great. Why cant people give a different shoe a chance? just because it doesnt say rod laver on the back or because it says converse on it, doesnt mean its horrible or not as good.

What kind did you "try?" Was it the leather or the mesh? If it was the leather, you can't get a good assessment of the shoes until you mod them.

Yeah really, I hated my Lavers (leather) until I modded them.

Now I won't even think about playing in my old shoes (DC's) :oops:

dude, i think that if you dont get atleast lavers, your screweing yourself, right in the...well, im not going to go there, but none the less, there are so many more benifits to lavers than converse, you think that 2000 or so people that have used modified would know something or to about whats the best equipment for footbag.
